desirous Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 when people bring pit bulls, you gotta separate the smaller dogs or dinner is served.Kids too. They're extra tender and juicy.I never cease to be amazed by the sight of kids running around in the fountain. In HOUSTON! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDeb Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 I took my daughter to DG on Saturday morning. There were a lot of folks in the park, even with the overcast/drizzly weather. They still had the Saturday morning yoga on the stage, which was really cool to see in such a setting. There was also a child's birthday party going on. The fountains that the kids can play in are very cool.I've got to say, this is a gorgeous park in a great setting: convention center on one side, skyscrapers on the other. Toyota Center on one side, MMP on the other. I'm really proud that we have something like this in Houston and I can see its popularity exploding.why why why would anyone swim in that...I guess the parents don't have common sense to know that it is not a pool...Kids will jump into any puddle deep enough.

He should just hush while he's aheadAnd when i finally have kids, i'll be sure to keep them away from desirous. His comment sounded a little Michael Jacksonish !!!

MidtownCoog Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 (edited) Please note nowhere did I say them swimming in Kinder Lake was a bad thing. As a wise person observed, "that's Texas 2008."You see new things every day. Of course that water quality is not that great for swimming.

Please let's stop it at that and let's not get personal. I live in surburbia Manvel and have visited the park twice. We dined downtown on one of those visits. My wife can't have enough of the park. By the way we lived in SW part for 3 years and never visited DT. Great to have something to cheer downtown apart from the Rockets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jayshoota Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 The other day about 5pm I heard all this loud music coming from DG and wondered what could be happening on a Monday afternoon. It turned out to be one of the fitness classes the park puts on. I was not close enough to get a good estimate of the number of people but it looked like a really good crowd sweating to some salsa music...

The Great Hizzy! Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 (edited) The last weekend the Astros were in town, on a Sunday afternoon, and I saw about a dozen or so people with Astros gear on tooling around the park, so I suspect that a good number of them use it (or have used it) prior to or after a game. We'll see if that becomes routine, like going to the B.U.S. or Home Plate. Edited May 2, 2008 by The Great Hizzy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
